Faile New York, USA

Faile is a New York based collaboration between Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller.

Faile has attained global recognition for their pioneering use of wheat pasting and stenciling in the increasingly established arena of street art, and for their explorations of duality through a fragmented style of appropriation and collage.

While Faile’s work is constructed from found visual imagery and blurs the line between “high” and “low” culture, recent exhibitions demonstrate an emphasis on audience participation, a critique of consumerism and the incorporation of religious media and architecture into their work. The mural at the Wynwood Walls is a collaboration of artists Faile and Bast.
